Trivia:
In September 1928, Warner Bros. Pictures purchased a majority interest in First National Pictures and from that point on, all "First National" productions were actually made under Warner Bros. control, even though the two companies continued to retain separate identities until the mid-1930's, after which time "A Warner Bros.-First National Picture" was often used. more

Manly Performance, 5 February 2004
Author: Single-Black-Male from London, England

This box-office flop did nothing whatsoever to stir audiences. The 22 year old John Wayne appears pleasantly natural, although still quite rustic as a result of rejecting tutoring from Broadway veterans. His personality outweighs his experience as an actor.
